6. [+980, -145] They're indeed thin but to say the other members weigh less than 48 kg.... either they're lying about their height or their weight ㅠ not even 48 kg at their heights is like stick skinny ㅜ They're not stick skinny but quite thin...

7. [+859, -178] I like everything about them but their attitude on variety shows. They act as if they were forced to be there because they sound tired. The MCs tried so hard to pull them into the conversation... what a disappointment. Did they lose their roots? If they were a rookie, I doubt they would've acted the way they did today... am I the only one who thought that?

8. [+646, -68] Taeyeon should not be on variety shows. Why do viewers have to put up with her attitude? Look at her facial expressions... she's checked herself out of the show.

1. [+354, -38] The scriptwriters wrote everything around their dating. The questions were clearly written not to find out more about SNSD but for one of them to get caught in a compromising question they're forced to answer.

2. [+279, -51] It's a careful topic and I could tell the members were really careful about their answers.

3. [+237, -74] Sigh... The members really did their best for the other members. Do well, SNSD!!!

4. [+39, -9] I think the scriptwriter changed up the script midway because Soshi looked really surprised at some of the questions they got.

5. [+19, -6] If those members purposely avoided the show to get away from those questions, the show should've steered to questions about the remaining members or their music. The show's gone downhill since the scriptwriter changed.

Look at these double standards. When Hara was asked questions about her dating scandal and called a Slut on national tv. They say it's that kind of show, and she should've known better. When SNSD gets asked questions about dating, knetz get all defensive and blame the script writers.

This is SNSD's job. They get paid to go on shows and promote themselves. Their personal feelings don't really matter when it comes to doing their jobs. IT wasn't enjoyable as a non-fan watching them on the show when the snsd image their fans scream about it how amusing/personable they are on variety.

I disagree a bit, only because for half of the show, they asked about Sooyoung & Yoona and all kinds of dating questions. Obviously it's going to be a topic since the scandal was revealed, and this show is also radio star. But when it was obvious that none of them were really budging with the questions, they didn't change the direction of the conversation till much later. I thought the latter half of the program was pretty funny (even though they talked about old topics that seemed like it was prepared the last minute...)

I'm surprised that netizens is just picking up on Taeyeon's experession. It makes her look like she doesn't want to be there or doesn't care like Sohee. I noticed since last year ex specially since Tiffany had gotten closer to Bora and Yuri.

you should watch the broadcast before jump to the conclusion then. wth. they are all trying. taeng was the least to talk but even then she always reacted positively, laughing at the jokes all the time.

Because SNSD reacted "carefully" and KARA reacted emotionally and disrespected their sunbae's (taking words from knetizens). There's a big difference.. I don't think KARA should get hated but these situations imo are not comparable..And there ARE comments saying they "lost their roots" and that Taeyeon wasn't behaving well. So it's not like they got away with their supposedly 'bad' behaviour completely.

[+646, -68] Taeyeon should not be on variety shows. Why do viewers have to put up with her attitude? Look at her facial expressions... she's checked herself out of the show.

what your seeing is the real Taeyeon. The one who isn't always bright and bubbly but quiet. The Taeyeon you guys want back is the one when she debuted where she had to step up as a leader and be bright and bubbly on variety shows because the other girls were more reserved or didn't get the chance to full show their charms. Now that they have Taeyeon has no reason to take that leadership stance anymore and is letting the rest of the girls lead the way

They were all there, and she's the leader of the "Nation's girl group".. she could at least try and fake looking interested more often. They're all mostly in it for the music but variety shows come with being an idol, and they know that

I still don't like that the story is that they revealed it as much as they were forced to rveal they were dating. News papers use them as weapons to one up each other and then snsd is expected to act like it didnt piss them the hell out

I'm pretty sure they are except Yuri (but I believe she has some issues with her weight and thus that's why tiffany lied?) But they still seem quite healthy though (but perhaps thats part of the idol facade).

eating a lot in one day will not make you gain 20 lbs suddenly. even if you gain a pound or two, trust it will be gone by the next day. srry i just think this is a very common but nonsensical assumption.

After that dramatic weight loss she had between Hoot and Mr. Taxi, Yuri gained back the weight, but I think the weight's settling weirdly on her. If that makes sense. Happens with extreme yo-yo dieting.

kim gura is such an annoying mc. same questions all the time. half the time tiffany had to jump in at the mc's accusations against the girl lol. also the other half she was trying to be funny but failed rofl.

It sucks but they all know that (every idol). For example for cnblue it was the same. instead of talking about their album wich they self-composed, Yonghwa got the same questions he gets on any other show for years now.It's just like that stupid question they ask every idol: who is your ideal woman/guy? It's sad to see those shows not having better questions to ask. But they know gossip brings in views and clicks.So if no one watched, read or bought those magazines, they would change as well. So people are also to blame because you get what you asked for, and that sucks of course for the artists

Don't know why they keep bringing Taeyeon on Radio Star, though. Like I understand she's one of the most popular but she didn't look very happy to be there last time either. She's not really an interview kind of person and she just sits quietly as the other members talk. Sharp tongued members like Sooyoung, Hyoyeon and Jessica do better on variety shows that are mostly them interacting with MCs.

They said themselves that they would talk more freely but the two who are being talked about knew they'd get chewed out so chose to not come. Yuri said herself it isnt our secret as much as it is theirs we should as members and friends not blurt out someone else's secrets.

I saw them live and while they are thin, I don't think they're stick skinny either. Sure, they could gain 10 pounds and still look slim, but none of them were scary skinny like Jessica circa 2009 and Yuri circa Mr. Taxi.

The girls laughed and reacted to everything the MCs threw at them. I watched it with my dad who doesn't know who any of the members are and he laughed a lot. They answered every single question. What the heck is the commenter talking about? Heck Jessica, who is usually pretty quiet on other shows, was very talkative.

When you look at just the screen capture of a single moment, it looks like they're not reacting but everyone was engaged. I'm not the biggest fan of Tae Yeon but she answered questions that were directed at her and followed along with the whole conversation. She just didn't talk as much because Tiffany went into "manager" mode and blocked some of the girls from responding. Geez. The bandwagon mentality is fucking annoying, especially when people didn't even watch the whole thing.

Last night episode was fun, but it's not as good as last year ep, where Yoo Se Yoon was still one of the host. Sad that Hyoyeon and Sooyoung can't come :( It will be more entertaining with them. Love their interaction with Kyuhyun! And Sunny and Kyu are close! My two fav people :DD I think Yoona is also really close with Kyuhyun <3

I have NO CLUE what you're taking about. They were CLEARLY not comfortable because this was a dating special and they did not know what to say because those dating publicly were not there and they did not want to say too much. Also, they did not want to be put in a difficult situation and be led to say some things as some may be dating secretly! I enjoyed it but I wish it was not a dating special.

Yeah I agree. Especially because of the last part in your comment. When I just got into kpop (I was like 13-14) I really wanted to have bodies like SNSD.I'm around Sooyoung's height and I read she was like 43-45 kg? I was 10kg heavier and it made me feel pretty bad about my weight back then (while that was considered bordering underweight-normal). I'm pretty sure a lot more girls feel this way, right now..

Whatever I got my doasage of Dorky Ahjumma laugh from Taeyeon and that was worth it.

i doubt this dude even watched the show or any soshi shows. they are purely making this judgement based on screencaps. they are always engaged. sure they might not like the question but they are always engaged and answer every question.

literally what tho? i'm korean so it's not like anything's getting lost in translation but i would say everyone maybe sans taeyeon tried to laugh at everything and tried their best to be entertaining. jessica was amazing today even though literally half the show was about boys and dating, like...

I understand that, but even on other shows where Yoona/Sooyoung were present, they still played it off by joking wround to avoid the question.

I'm not knocking them for choosing to avoid it, but think it's best to just be mature about it, instead of dancing around it, like it's something wrong.

They're women in their 20s, so I don't see why they have to avoid the issue, when they'll probably have to discuss it later anyway. Also, I think it's unlikely that it's just Yoona/Sooyoung dating, but that's for another post.

Yes, you are the only one. Literally the whole first half of the show was the MCs bugging them about the Yoona and Sooyoung dating thing. I know the girls knew that those questions would arise, but I'm pretty sure even they got annoyed with how stubborn the MCs and writers were. I know Radio Star is a show where they ask uncomfortable questions, but if you saw the show you'll see what I mean. The girls handled it extremely well though. At some points, it even seemed that the writers put in some last minute questions because the girls seemed shocked at some of the questions. Good thing they didn't bring along Yoona and Sooyoung. But the second half was really good after they got away from the dating bullcrap. Jessica single handedly owned the whole show. The Ice Princess is meling :)

8. [+646, -68] Taeyeon should not be on variety shows. Why do viewers have to put up with her attitude? Look at her facial expressions... she's checked herself out of the show.

This. Please, SM, if you don't want to put Hyoyeon in shows like this, don't put Taeyeon either. She's clearly not meant to be on a variety program. In the past, she was comfortable and can joke around too but these few years..... she's just too calm for shows like this. It's like a waste.

Im not sure about Seohyun as her weight changes often but I'm pretty sure she's healthy at least. But yeah I don't think she weighs less than Tiffany (also because seo is a bit taller) but I think Yuri was a more obvious example.

I'm sure if it was their personal life, they would. But they did not know how much to say so as not to disrespect Yoona and Sooyoung. The writers should have changed the concept of this episode since the two did not come. The girls were clearly uncomfortable with some of those questions.

lol ur weight is perfectly fine and healthy. but asian countries are too judgmental when it came to weight. thats why my mom used to tell me,"We are the ones feeding you. So unless someones feeding you, don't take shit from them."

it's different though.I believe in Hara's situation the MC's called her out cause she probably dated more than one guy and broke up with the one she was with.In yoona's situation, they didn't call her a dating idol or anything like that because it's her first time coming out.Also the reactions are different. If snsd threw a water bottle, they'd get shit about how unprofessional and arrogant they are now that they're at the top. Look, they're getting shit for not smiling and being excited for the show.

but yea, Hara's was a bit extreme. Probably that "level" thing netizens keep talking about. snsd is more loved so yea.

lol picking on Taeyeon's attitude, i will not care either if u're inviting me but keep asking about other people and other things. Besides, she gave the best laugh in here, and i watched this for her... Besides, the last thing we want is another controversy/

Sica was digging a hole for herself lol, basically now everyone know 100% that she's with one of 2PM members.. The MCs like people like that, it's easier to get respond for Hyo and Sica, but at the same time it's dangerous.

This is why I kind of wish the members didn't reveal who they were dating. It's not like I care if their dating or not, but I hate how literally everything centered around their boyfriends. It's just...not entertaining. Snsd is the funniest when their just talking about themselves, etc.

yeap yuri>tiffany. yuri's weight depends on their promotion time. She can be as thin as a stick(srsly no kidding) or as healthy as fluffy bear >w< Tiffany is just unfortunate since yuri has slim down a bit recently. If not yuri/seohyun might be the heaviest(not sure if its the proper term?) and im pretty sure some of their weight is above 50kg and MAYBE the only reason why fany mentioned 48kg is maybe she wants herself to feel better or sumthing lol just like other girls in this universe lol

So ? They're getting paid for it and promo for their album. TVXQ have been getting the same questions for years too. The story about how Yunho was cold to Changmin when he came to SM has been asked from them a million times (including the most recent epis of Beatles Code), but you know what they do everytime ? They be the pros they are and answer it just as enthusiastically every time

[+646, -68] Taeyeon should not be on variety shows. Why do viewers have to put up with her attitude? Look at her facial expressions... she's checked herself out of the show.

Like what pepp said below, this is the real Taeyeon. Some fans call her 'emo' to pull a funny side of her real self. She did not lost her spark on variety shows. Like what most of the netizens are saying, they are grown ups already. She grew, her members grew. This Taeyeon is the one behind those funny and dorky front back in 2007-2010 era. I'm not saying she faked all of those. It's part of her already, dork and funny. But this reserved Taeyeon is the dominant side of her whom she chose to hide for her members. Because, she is SNSD's leader.

omg what a great guy he is!!! he likes thigh gaps!!11 he's so revolutionary !!1 uhh no, how about trying to love yourself without giving a fuck what societies body standards of you are. zicos fans are so embarrassing with this shit.

Lulz they're so READY to throw shade at soshi after the Kara incident but GUESS WHAT? Queens are classy. The MCs didn't sound pissed and Jess was so participative too. The whole show was just a trap to get them to say more and I applaud them cos they're handling it so well.

Yeah no, I still wouldn't care. I don't care about male idols and their ideal types. Hell I barely care about BoA's ideal type. It's not important to me and there's no way in hell I'm gonna praise him for liking something on girl.

it's just the members they chose this time. jessica did well for usually being bored and quiet. taeyeon's always been emo, and yuri, sunny, tiffany usually need sooyoung/yoona/hyoyeon to play off of to get really excited
